Tile Repair for Great Hautbois homes
Local tile repair for Great Hautbois: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracked floor tiles
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Tile repair in Great Hautbois without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Common call-outs are for cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, in floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and marble.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace in Great Hautbois?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Questions from Great Hautbois
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Typically, if it isn’t loose.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Make sure the area is dry

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire tiled area
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
